WASHINGTON – Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is taking her star power to America’s heartland to campaign for other progressive underdogs trying to upend the political establishment.

Ocasio-Cortez will team up with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to campaign in Kansas for two progressive House candidates, Brent Welder and James Thompson.

Thompson is running for the seat once held by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

The primary is Aug. 7.

“What we fight for is not just popular in Vermont, Queens and the Bronx, it’s popular everywhere,” Sanders tweeted of the Kansas campaigning.

The response to the Friday rally in Wichita with Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders was so strong that organizers had to move to a bigger location that can seat up to 5,000 people.

Like Ocasio-Cortez, Welder is a former organizer for Sanders. He’s one of six Democrats vying to take on Republican Rep. Kevin Yoder, for whom President Trump recently tweeted his “full and total endorsement!”

She’s heading to Michigan next to campaign for another insurgent candidate, Abdul El-Sayed, for Michigan governor. El-Sayed is running against Gretchen Whitmer, the former Michigan state Senate Democratic leader, on Aug. 7.

“Together, we fight for a more just, equitable future … we can’t wait to have you join us here in Michigan soon,” El-Sayed tweeted of Ocasio-Cortez’s support.
